Easy Overnight Oats

No matter what time I wake up in the morning, I always feel rushed to get ready and get out the door. Most mornings I’m either skipping breakfast or just quickly eating something that doesn’t require any prep like a banana or apple.  Lately Jesse and I have been trying to meal prep our breakfasts and lunches on the weekends so we can have healthy options ready to grab-and-go. One of my favorite breakfasts you can prep 1-3 days in advance is my quick and easy recipe for overnight oats.

Ingredients (serves 2):
1 cup rolled oats (not quick cook)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 1/4 cups unsweetened almond milk
1 Tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
1⁄2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

 

Topping Ideas:

Bananas, berries, nuts, coconut, apples, raisins, chocolate chips, pineapple, dried fruit, PB2 Powder, granola, cacao nibs, etc.

Directions:
Mix all ingredients together and allow to sit overnight. Can make up to 3 days in advance. Serve with your favorite topping!

Like I said – super easy! The great thing about overnight oats is that you can customize your toppings so you don’t feel like you’re eating the exact same thing every single day. Let me know if you give them a try!
